Electrical World : Amontf the jjren popular attractions at the meeting o the Hritish association are the lecture which are delivered in the evening eael year by some scientilie celebrity. A .Manchester in 1887 it will bo rcmeni bored , Prof. George Forbes ilellvnroc one of his brilliiuit and oliaracteristic addresses on electric lighting1. Thii year at Math the address was deliverec by Prof. Ayrtoii , who chose as his sub ject the electric transmission of power 'J'he lecture was a comprehensive 0111 and must have been very entertaining and instructive to the largo audiunce It .showed how in ringing a bell or send' ing a telegraph menage there is an electrical transmission of power , ant then went on to describe what had been done in the distribution of current to lamps and to motors for electric wulding. Prof. Ayrtoii stated that in America there were (1,000 ( motors driving ma chinery , while in ( irciit Britain there were hardly 100 ; and ho might have doubled the figures for America. In respect to electric railways ho pointed to the work that had been done in this country , and ho said that every Knglisli electrician who traveled in this country came back impressed "with the enterprise and the happy-go-lucky suc cess" of their brethren here. 'As to high potential , whether for lighting or for power transmission , as exemplified by American practice , lie was compelled to conclude that it was now what ! ! 0 miles an hour was half a century ago uncanny , rather than dangerous. Wo are glad to see that Prof. Ayrtoii had n good word to say fortolepueratro , which ho was right in speaking of as a per fectly trustworthy and most economical method of utilizing distant steam , or water power to transport goods auto matically , and which might alto bo used for passenger trallle , giving us the lux ury of ballooning without its perils. In dealing with more than one branch of this subject , Professor Ayrton rallied hit ) hearers somewhat playfully on the backwardness of England in the various electrical developments ; and , oven ad mitting that our practice hero is some times a little bit reckless and bap-haz ard , ho appeared ready to grant that it was better to have such practice than bo content to theorize , sitting still and doing nothing. One is pleasantly accustomed to think of Knglnnd in the vanguard of progress , and there seems no good reason why she should not be there to-day , as she has been in the past. Klcotrlo Street Cars. Electrical World : There could be no mistaking the keenness of tlio interest felt in electric locomotion by the .street railway men who assembled in Wash ington. It is the question of the hour for a very large number of roads , and it is evidently going to bo answered in the aflirmativo in a great many instan ces by the adoption of one or tlio other of the electric systems. The success with the cable , to' which attention was drawn by Mr. Holmes , of whoso advoc acy any interest may well bo proud , is at once striking anJ convincing. By that wo mean that while it proves much for the cubic in good hands , it is not less eloquent for electricity as onoinoro means , and a bettor , of replacing horses. As wo have said before , the competition does not Ho between electricity and the horse , but between electricity and the cable. The horse is already out of the running , and of the various substitutes for him the only two commanding at tention are the cable and the electric motor. Between those two methods no tlnal decision will or can bo made for the present. Probably there will bo many now cable roads put in whore cit ies have a largo population , but even in those cases there will simply bo a post ponement of the verdict for electricity with its half a do/.en ways o'f handling and propelling a car. No one can say that electric propulsion ramo worsted out of the discussion at Washington. Mr. Unit-Icon certainly made a most favorable impression in roj gurd to storage battery cars , while Mr. Ulnckwoll on the conduit system , and Mr. Sprague and Mr. Mansfield on overhead methods of operation , wore listened to with marked approval. Of course there was criticism , and some of it was pertinent , but at the worst it only meant that a few details wore still defective , and not that the principle was a failure in its broad application. It seems but a day or two ago thut wo wore told that no electric road had over run with morn than one or two ears , and never could ; while now roads of ton , twenty and thirty cars are be coming matters of weekly note. If any body thinks that electrical engineers have reached their best results in the work thus far done , and hugs the belief , wo can only bo t orry for his delusion , and suggest that he study not merely the advance that has boon made in electrics , in oven the last five yours , but the history of the improvements in steam and cable locomotion. Perhaps there wan no more significant state ment made , moreover in the convention than that in Qulncy , 111. , and Cleveland , O , , the consent of the property owners to the now electric roads to pass be fore their doors was overwhelming in its unanimity.

With a population of about two thousand , it supports two tol- tdhonu companies , having altogether a thousand subscribers. 7 > ory trnde ; man has one in his store , and almost nl residences of foreigners are supplied so that it is possible to talk to ulmo < l\ny one of your acquaintance in th iotfn and transact ail necessary busi ness at the telephones.

" Klrctrlolty at San. Klectro-Mechanie : The naval uses o electricity are almost as numerous as it : applications to general purposes upor land. Some of the firmer , such as ttu interior lighting of ships , the ringing of call-bells , etc. , arc purely peaceful ii their character ; others , however , arc devoted solely to tlio purpose of war. One of the latter is firing of guns by electricity. This is generally accomplished by ciiushig the current from a zinc-carbon battery to pa'-s through what is known as an electric primer , placed in the vent of tbo gun. The primer is simply n .small tube containing a fine'platinum wire , surrounded with mealed powder. The platinum wire , as is well known , oilers a high resistance to the passage of an electric current , and when con nected with the closed circuit of a bat- to r.y becomes instantly white-hot , thus igniting the primer and firing the gun. The firing key , by which the circuit is opened and closed at will , is placed in the pilot house , or at some other place where it is directly under control of the captain , and the circuit is. of course , kept incomplete until the in stant of firing. Obviously such a sys tem , under some circumstances , as , for example , where it is desirable to con centrate a whole broadside upon a given point and to lire all the guns together , would have trrcat ndvnntncos over the old method of depending upon the simultaneous action of the gunners. On board the English armored turrot- hhip Colossus , and several other vessels of the English navy , electricity has been employed to render visible the sights of the guns when firing at night. One of the wires from a small Leelnnehe battery leads to the rear sight of tbo gun. and is there connected with a line platinum wire running across tbo bottom of the sight notch. The platinum wire interposes just sufllcicnt resistance to cause it to glow with heat while the electric current passes through it thus enab ling it to be readily seen at night. From the rear sight the battery wire ' loads to the front sight where it 'meets the other wire of the current. The ends of the two wires are brought very near each other at the apex of the front sight , so that the electric spark's pass ing between them servo to mark its po sition. Every modern man-of-war is now pro vided with powerful search lights. They are of the arc pattern , usually KOOU to:50)00candlc-powfr : ( ) : , so arranged with reflectors that their rays can bo concentrated into a single beam and thrown in any desired direction. With one of these lights of only 8,000 candlepower - power , no difllculty is experienced in illuminating a target more than two miles distant , rendering firing at night as easy and accurate asby day. But , as its name suggests , one of the chief uses of the search-light is to search for autonomy. In war times ves sels at night in proximity of an enemy would constantly sweep the surround ing waters with the search-light to de tect the approach of hostile ships or torpedo boats. The search-light is also employed in signaling at night , where the di'stanco over which a message is to bo sent is very great. The manner of using it for this purpose is somewhat novel. It is simply flashed against the clouds for long and short periods , according to a prearranged code , the letters of which are indicated by various combinations of Hashes of dilVeront durations. Mes sages are said to have been successfully sent by this method , between vo.SMjls o'f the English navy a distance of thirty miles. Pjans have also been devised for signaling over shorter distances by moans of the ordinary incandescent o'j glow lamps. _ A I\\K \ \ Crop of Gall.

There is an asylum located within th corporate limits of Omaha , for indlvld mils who have been overtaken in thel crusade upon the aims of justice. It i known as the police station.

In the latter respect. Omaha lias beer extremely fortunate , and with but few exceptions , every individual who hai been incarcerated for violating the law , 1ms been safely brought before the tri bunals of justice and expiated his crime , And to the credit of the authorities may it bo said that some ef the most noted violators of the law have been foiled in their attempts to hero carry out their ignoble vocation. Among the most noted "crooks" us ing a metaphorical expression of police origin that have visited Omaha , the names of Gib Yes > t , the world-renowned safe-blower ; "Cabbage" Kyan , the noted sneak-thief and all-around crook ; "Heddy" Mullen , a veteran burglar ; "Three-fingered Jack. " the highway man , Poke Wells and Charley Pitts the train robbers and bank burglars , might be mentioned. Their calls in Omaha wcro merely of an informal tendency and were void of sensationalism for the reason of their extended acquaintance in police circles. But each one of them came once too oftenand in consequence was ensconced on suspicion of having perpetrated some outrage upon an un suspecting community. The police however feel confident that they will come no more , or at least the major portion of them. Gib Yost fell the prey of Billy Pinkerton - ton after having been engaged in his nefarious undertakings for nearly a score of years. Clad in the garb of an .iged women lie was just entering the doorway of a lowly cottage in the suburbs of Chicago with a market bas ket on his armwhen the officer swooped down upon him and he found himself in the environs of a medium he had so long kept at bay and scoffed at its ap proach. Like the youth who fired the Kphcsian dome he felt that his mission on earth had been fulfilled and with , ho quickness of a catamount ho ] > ulled his revolver , but when his eyes rested upon a copy of Smith & Wesson's latest .11 the form of a 45-callibre revolver in , ho hands of a man who yet never flinched , ho for the first time , since ho ibandoncd his parental tutorage , loinled his hands heavenward and suc cumbed to the inevitable fate of every crook. He was given trial and although argo sums of money were placed nt his difeKsal ] , he was punished with a scn- , ence of seventeen years of hard labor in the Illinois penitentiary , where ho is confined at present. "Cabbage" Ryan is still at largo and K stated to have reformed , and to bo at , ho present time employed as "spotter" in a well-known banking house in Chi cago. Ho was given the name of "Cab- jago" for the reason that , in his early lays , his father operated a market gar- Ion in the suburbs of Chicago , and Young Ryan used to dispose of the pro 3ufo about the city. One of his- 2hicf exploits was the stealing of tliirtv- six head of cattle from a "stock farm tear Chicago and disposing of them on , hp local market before detected. For Lhis ho was given a term of years in state's prison. However , it is stated hat ho has abandoned his wayward- less , and has returned to a reputable system of gaining a livelihood. "Ruddy" Mullen is now an inmate of Sing Sing. Ho operated from New Vork to the Pacific coast , and from the Jritish possessions to the Gulf. Tlio natter of his escaping arrest is not at- ributed alone to his dexterity , but to lis courageous spirit. Several myster- ous murders are laid at his door by the luthorities , but the slightest circum- tantial evidence is all that they have o rest their suspicions upon. Three ears ago ho was in Omaha , but finding ho situation anything but inviting , ho iropolled himself eastward , and about ix months afterward was arrested while ittompting to blow a safe in a bank in Jrooklyn , N. Y. For this and for other rimes known to have been committed iy him , ho was furloughed in the poni- entiary for a combined term of forty rears. Thrco-fingorcd .Tack is well known iorp and in Council Blutl's. Ho was a aring burglar and highwayman , He vas hero about two years ago , and dur- ng his presence several robberies wore oportca to the police , but in vain did hey search for the much-desired indi- idual. The description given in each aso tallied exactly with that of the toted footpad. lie loft hero and was ubsequently captured in Minneapolis , \Iinn. , and sent to the penitentiary at Stillwator for a term of thirteen years md .six months nt hard labor. Ho was ilno sentenced to spend the first thrco lays of each month in solitary contlno- nont. Poke Wells is perhaps the bent known > f all in this section. Ho was arrested > n iiumorous occasions while in this vi- : inity for felonious crimes , but escaped vith light sentences. Daniel Fnrroll , now connected with ho Glebe of Council Bluffs , and who at ho time was bhorltT of Mills county Iowa ) , carries three scars from bullets ispntchod from a revolver in the hands ) f Poke Wolls. But Wells , like the rest f his clan , was destined to nect outraged justice when 11 prepared to withstand its uddon approach. Ho was preyed upon jy the authorities in every clime ho , 'IbUod , and was finally captured near U. Paul , Minn. , and at present is sorv- ng out a ten-years' term in tlio state jastilo of Minnesota. The manner in which Charley Pitts ixpiated Ills crimes is perhaps fresh in lie minds-of u great many , Being a xnvorful man , and jKJb&uesfut ; a feurlesti record , he teen found n position open for him in the ranks , of the noied coterie of bandit" , headed by the James broth er" . He was with them in their lawless work for a period of years , and a among the first to dispa'tch the life ol any pei-Min who dare interfere in their transactions. But persevering justice with her mantle of power hovered over liis pathwnj. and while attempting to rob a bank in mid-day at Northllold , Minn. , years ago. he was riddled with bullets , and fell prostrate in death. Thus it will bo seen why the huge iron gratings are an indispensiblo ngonoy in the formation of n receptacle for that element of humanity that has been led from the path of rectitude by the wiles of the tomptor. R. J. Ci.ANtrv. A National Sellout of MitHlu. American Mnga/.ino : Mrs. Thurber knows that a national conservatory can not be established at Now York at the first stroke. She has clearly outlined her project , but the project must be at tained bit by bit. It was mapped out in her mind several years ago , when , trav eling between Toulouse nnd ( 'otto , she took part in a conversation on music and on art in general with a choice party of French and English gentlemen. This conversation led her to sketch on the fly-leaf of a Bradshaw's Guide the plan of a national conservatory. Associated intimately as she was with European feelings and ideals , she was still in tensely American in her anxiety to a-sist the art progress of her own country. A national conservatory , as she had planned it , though necessarily more re stricted in its scope than she wished it to be. was finally established ; and it represented in her mind and in the minds of her co-laborers a purely in dustrial and patriotic enterprise. It was not , in other words , a money-making scheme. It was likely to be , on the con trary , a money-losing scheme , bravely philanthropic.
